I’ve never been a huge fan of the Leapers/UTG scopes but was greatly impressed by this scope. Bought it new and paid over $300. It sat on my pcp pesting gun all of its life. Here’s some additional info for those not familiar: Leapers has announced a new scope that’s suitable for use on air rifles, including high power spring/piston and gas ram models. This new Leapers product is the
UTG T8 2-16X44 CQB/MRC IE Scope. “T8” represents an 8X zoom ratio which is cutting edge technology in optics.
The UTG T8 2-16X44 CQB/MRC IE scope is claimed to maximize optical performance at any range. You can use low power for close range shooting, medium power for intermediate distances, and high power for extended long range shots. The side parallax adjustment knob allows you to eliminate parallax down to as close as 10 yards – another benefit for use for use on air rifles.
Leapers’ True Strength (TS) Platform provides bracing against
forward recoil – this is what makes the UTG T8 2-16X44 CQB/MRC IE scope suitable for use on break barrel air rifles. It is also completely sealed and 100% nitrogen filled, making it shock, fog, and rain proof.
The UTG T8 2-16X44 CQB/MRC IE scope is built with what Leapers describes as a Smart Spherical Structure (TS Platform) to control inner/outer tube interaction. This structure adds durability to the scope allowing for precise and consistent windage/elevation adjustment throughout its lifespan.
This T8 scope also has premium lockable and resettable turrets for fast and intuitive zero adjustment and retention. Its 30mm main tube offers a bright view and maximum turret adjustment range. There’s an
etched glass reticle and emerald coated lenses.
As a bonus, this scope also includes an integral angled sunshade, flip-open lens cap, and Max Strength QD Weaver/Picatinny rings. Most air rifles will require “traditional”
airgun/22 scope rings to use this scope on their guns, this would be an additional cost purchase.
The UTG T8 2-16X44 CQB/MRC IE scope carries the Leapers Item Number SCP3-216AOIEW and has a MSRP of $299.97.
Included are a set of dovetail rings, front flip-open lens cap and a UTG sidewheel. My price is $150 which includes shipping costs to conus. Prefer paypal + 3% but will consider other forms of payment. Kevin- klentz4 “AT” comcast.net
